cheers guys!

Mattbirkin - they are yellow bulbs.... not sure if you can get them anymore as they were in my dads garage for the past 20 years as he used to buy them every time we were in Germany lol.... try german ebay maybe?

Fronts cant go down any further atm as they are on their lowest setting.. but the helper spring is still there so could take that out if i want... just gunna let it settle properly first and see where she sits after that...

Really happy with the coilies.... the ride isnt too compromised which is good for me living out in the sticks!

Think i got them for £400 delivered after offering them a few lower amounts so try your luck and see what they will sell them for...

Cheers pal :-) looks mint

Ah i think i know which one you mean, they are bigger than the one i have right?

Was it on the back of the blue coupe that got 3rd place too?

I've got one on the back of my mk2, you can still buy both front and rear from vw classic parts in germany.

nice looking b van m8

just wondering the wheels you had on at the bigining (minilte type) are they 14X6 and how did they fit as I'm looking at getting some ??

thanks henry

yeah thats the size..... they are mazda wheels i got out of my neighbours skip lol

the center hole was a bit bigger than the center on the hub so my dad made up a spiggot type thing that stopped the wheel sitting down if that makes sense?

Ok long tim no update!

Not much has happened really, i fixed all the things that needed fixing... then I managed to get a job and everything was all hunky dory until my birthday when my back box decided to fall off my exhaust!!

So to keep me on the road my dad found his old b3 passat exhaust end pipe and stuck it on the end.... it sounded slightly chavy but hey... at least i could still drive it...

Then finally last night i dropped it off at a place in bournemouth and came home to find it with this:

A full stainless powerflow system, cat is gone at last but still got a centre box coz I'm not into loud exhausts... just cheeky rasssspy ones...

I am now one happy Kat!

So much so i even went out after dinner and gave her a wash down.... got a bit dark tho as you can tell from the pics lol

Kat, have you got any pictures of how the sunroof was installed?

Was the roof strengthened at all?

Its something I've always wanted to do, some sort of openair. But I'm too scared to start cutting giant holes in my roof without some sort of idea how to go about making it all work lol.

Nice to see it looking so clean still, and the exhaust is pretty smart.

Well seeing as I've been a bit quiet on the posting front, I thought I'd get a few pics to remind everyone how the polo currently looks!

Looking lovely as always Kat :-D where you been hiding?

Got a new job that didnt give me a lot of money to play with the polo and felt there wasnt much to post about lol... and been riding the vespa a lot lately too so not a lot has happened to the old girl lol

Love this

x2 everything about it just looks so factory

Thanks guys, just having a nightmare with my insurers now... they say they didnt offer me agreed value... when i would have taken the policy if they didnt so they can go jump!

Hadn't seen this until now... I am in love! Definitely increased my want for a mk2 You've done a top job, love that pretty much all of it has been done at home and you haven't sent it to a garage, real credit to you (Y) You also get marks for being a girl and proving that we can actually do stuff! lol

thought i recognised this, driven past it quite a few times parked upon the a35 near lyndhurst. so clean andlooks awsome! mk 2 ftw!

Whats the boot release button from mate?

Looks freaking awesome

Whats the boot release button from mate?

Looks freaking awesome

Only just seen your question... soz!

Its from a Mk1 cabby boot :)

Got another update for you since the last... which was quite a while ago!

Polo hasn't changed much but now i have finally got the mohair roof in with matching lining on the inside (beetle throughout now!), got rid of my temporary (been there for the past 3 years) black duck tape around the wing mirrors, and fitted my birthday present from 3 years ago which was a BMC GT badge to the front grill.... oh and added a slimline white wall too.

This wasn't a sudden injection of inspiration that got me to sort these bits out, i had to do it coz it was my wedding car 2 weeks ago!! So i had to get it all spruced up for the big day obviously :)

I was planning on having my other classic car as my car but I'm in the middle of resorting it and there was no way i could get it finished in time, but also I've owned the Polo for 10 years this year (still my first car) so in a way it was fitting for it to be the last car I'm in before i become a Mrs!!

Anyway, the pics are below... enjoy :)

Just had a good read through this, looks outstanding and is a real inspriration, Congratulations aswell haha, glad weve got unique polos, I've got a mk3 coupe open air :)

Open airs are the way forward for sure! What dud you get yours out of?

Congratulations!

Brilliant!!.. looks lovely and it looks like you had great weather for the wedding!

Wouldn't mind stealing a picture or 2 for the facebook page! ;-D

awwww Kat

That GT badge looks REALLY GOOD on.

Want pics of headlining.
